Perfect for exploring a very beautiful part of Yorkshire.
Perfect for exploring a very beautiful part of Yorkshire. So many walks in the area around Nidderdale and Wharfdale. Also The Black Sheep Brewery at Masham was well worth a visit. Very welcoming and helpful owners Steve and Bev . Many thanks for a great week
